Suggestion for Sniper Cannon

Tell that to the teachers
Also, did you do a research project on this topic or something?

 

Making sniper more rewarding was the point of this thread. Making long range snipes feel more satisfying. Right now sniper cannon is just so uninspired.

 

Wikipedia is actually a pretty reliable source. Its constantly updated and popular pages are heavily moderated not to mention you have sources to reference in case you need to fact check.

 

Sniper in BB is kind of the reverse of how it works in other games.

In most games, it’s an impracticality slow weapon to use, and requires a lot of careful aiming.

In Battle Bay, it’s the slow weapons like EC and Blast that require careful aiming, while sniper can just shoot from the hip, and get easy hits, even when you’re far enough away that you can’t really see what it is you’re shooting at.

And with regards to speed, you’re basically getting all the benafits of Standard Cannon, plus loads of extra range and crit chance, for very little penalty, since the cooldown is negligible. It takes 12.5 seconds for Shooter to cycle through all his weapons. So 11.1 seconds is kind of perfect, it’s long enough that it’s never idling, but still short enough that you’re never really waiting for it.

And before anyone says different. I ran double Blast for ages on my Speeder, which is the same 11.1 second cooldown, and even with only two weapons, I never really felt like I was waiting for a shot.

 

Maybe give sniper a scope? and smaller hit size? lol

 

I always thought sniper easier to aim on Battlefield and Counter Strike than other weapons, its cooldown is bigger on those games but it can one shot everyone, I guess nobody wants that on Battle Bay... but those are the only FPS I've ever played ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
